Brands come to The Atlantic not just for reach, but for resonance. Through our in-house creative marketing studio, we translate 167 years of editorial integrity into stories that shape culture and inspire action. We work with some of the world’s most influential brands to make content that is intelligent, beautifully crafted, and unmistakably Atlantic.
We are seeking a Producer to join our video and multimedia Marketing team. This is a pivotal role for a creative problem-solver with a knack for storytelling, deep production fluency, and a passion for making branded content that feels anything but expected.
Our producers are hybrid thinkers—equally comfortable pitching an idea to a client, crafting compelling storyboards, and managing a shoot from prep to post. They bring rigor and imagination in equal measure, working across departments and with external partners to build ambitious work that delivers for our brand partners.
Travel (domestic and international) for production is also required as-needed.
What you’ll do
Your core job is to own the production process, from the seed of an idea to the final cut. That includes:
Leading the execution of branded video and multimedia campaigns, including short films, social video, and podcast series
Developing compelling creative briefs and proactive pitches that speak to both client goals and The Atlantic’s editorial sensibility
Collaborating closely with internal stakeholders, brand partners, and external vendors to ensure the creative vision is realized
Managing timelines, budgets, and production logistics with clarity and accountability
Shaping efficient workflows and scalable production systems within the Re:think team
Sourcing and managing external production vendors, from editors to DPs to animators
Providing creative feedback and production expertise across a wide slate of projects and formats
Who you are
A creative doer with an eye for what makes a story memorable—and a drive to see it made. You combine editorial thinking with production acumen, and you thrive in environments that value both craft and clarity. You are keen to grow in your career, wanting to be a long-term part of the team, and learn daily from those around you.
You have 4+ years of experience producing branded video or multimedia content at an agency, media company, or creative studio
You have a portfolio of polished work that shows your range and creative instincts
You’re a confident communicator who can lead client calls, pitch ideas, give notes, and collaborate fluidly across teams
You’re comfortable managing timelines and budgets without losing sight of the creative vision, asking for help when needed
You are able to produce across environments—leading on-set production while also operating effectively in corporate and client-facing contexts, including planning, coordination, and decision-making
You understand what makes an idea feel unique to The Atlantic brand, and how to adapt storytelling to different audiences and formats
You are adept at translating stakeholder input into actionable production decisions without derailing schedule, budget, or creative direction
You’re curious, collaborative, and unafraid to ask bold questions—or propose better answers
Salary Minimum: $77,000; Salary Maximum: $90,000
